Skeletal disorders associated with fibroblast growth factor receptor mutations
Curr Opin Genet Dev.
1997 Jun.
Abstract
Mutations in three fibroblast growth factor receptor loci underlie several autosomal dominant skeletal disorders; these include dwarfism and various craniosynostosis syndromes affecting limb and craniofacial bone patterning. A functional analysis of several of these mutations has demonstrated that a constitutive activation of the receptor kinase is a common theme.
